Attention, Brandon Sanderson fans! Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to put me in the position to write full-time by turning me into a multi-millionaire. This post will NOT self-destruct in 5 seconds. 😎 @bookstodon

4. Do you feature real-world political and social issues in your work?

I do, actually. I deal with prejudice/bigotry, among other things. I also addressed the pandemic in one of my novellas.

For #AutisticAwareness and #IndieAuthor month, I recommend #AutisticBookshop https://autisticbookshop.com/ for books, coloring books, and more by autistic authors.

This site has ebooks and paperbacks for people of all ages - including Slipper The Penguin by Amy Marschall.

There are various journals and coloring books, several by Ashley Lauren Spencer.

I would very very much like a writing friend who could come and write with me on designated days, and hold me accountable to a set word count. I have the space (with good HEPA filters too!) and I’m happy to share it.

I just need something to prod the Muse into action again.

LMK if this is something you’re in need of too.

The #StarshipTeapot books are getting a fresh lick of paint with the help of the good folks at Damonza.

I'm absolutely in love with the new look. What do you think?
